    Feel free to swap the LL with an ER LL for extra long range punch.

    Keep in mind that you have a huge CT and are running an XL engine in it. Use cover wisely and support the less mobile assaults.



    Now let's go wreck s*** up! \m/

    I definitely would not use an SRM4 there, since it's a 2-tube launcher, which would fire your 4 SRMs in 2 volleys. It's pretty clear that it's meant for a Streak launcher. I'd be more interested in using as many lasers as possible, or using all 3 missile slots for Streaks.

    This is the first variant, built to take advantage of LPL and ML's being awesome together:



    The second variant would be something like this, packing 3 Streak launchers in:



    That gives you a pretty decent long-range punch from 3 Large Lasers, while wrecking anything that gets close with 3 Streaks.

    Cool! Thanks for the input, Dwergi. I am usually rather reluctant to use Streaks... just don't like the "ECM screws up your missile locks" thing, BUT I will give your variant a try.

    Edit: Another variant...



    Last one.

    I almost feel that you could run this without any missiles. so, 4-5 stars.
